About
I have lived in New Hampshire all of my life, growing up in the small towns of Goshen (~750 people) and Sunapee (~2500 people). After graduating high school in 2000, I attended Southern New Hampshire University for four years, completing my bachelor degree in Computer Information Systems in 2004.
For the first couple of years out of college, I worked as a computer consultant of sorts for a local company. I basically was the IT support for probably a hundred or so small businesses across the state. I drove many miles and learned how to support many different varieties of computer equipment.
In 2006 I decided I needed a change, after life on the road began to wear me down. I started working at a local insurance company in their IT department as a technical support specialist. I continue to work there till this day.
My computer experience covers a wide range of operating systems (Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, 2003, and of course, Mac OS X), e-mail clients (Outlook, Notes, Thunderbird, Apple Mail), web browsers (Firefox, IE, Camino, Safari), and countless other pieces of software. I am known at work for having a knack at finding answers to some of the most obscure computer issues around.
I am a big time sports fan and live in what can be considered one of the best areas of the country for a sports fan, with the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins just a 45 minute drive away. I also am a huge music fan and at one point was the IT Director at my college’s radio station, RadioSNHU.
I am a member of various social networks, such as…
- Facebook - This is my favorite social networking site. Layout is really clean, it is easy to use, there isn’t songs blaring everytime you visit someone’s page, and there is none of the MySpace spam junk. It is what MySpace should have been.
- MySpace - I vowed to never get a MySpace account, but I succumbed to peer pressure. It is a very simple page, since I do not believe in all of those weird layouts, movies, music, and so on that people put on their pages.
- Last.fm - Want to know what music I listen to? This is the place to go. Whatever I play on iTunes or my iPod will automatically appear on here.
- Digg - Not really a social networking site, but here you can keep track what Digg stories I liked.
